LZ (Hypothalamic lateral zone) synapses onto BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
transsynaptic tracer
Sign
excitatory
Evidence
Lateral hypothalamic zone input cells to BLA axo-axonic cells were vGLUT2-positive, indicating glutamatergic inputs.
